      <p> 
        Berkeley DB requires only underlying IEEE/ANSI Std 1003.1
        (POSIX) system calls and can be ported easily to new
        architectures by adding stub routines to connect the native
        system interfaces to the Berkeley DB POSIX-style system calls.
        See the Berkeley DB Porting Guide for more information. 
    </p>
      <p> 
        Berkeley DB will autoconfigure and run on almost any modern
        UNIX, POSIX or Linux systems, and on most historical UNIX
        platforms. Berkeley DB will autoconfigure and run on almost
        any GNU gcc toolchain-based embedded platform, including
        Cygwin, OpenLinux and others. See the Berkeley DB Installation and Build Guide for
        more information.
